What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access provides a unique opportunity to work with players and shape the direction of the game, ensuring that it meets the needs and desires of the community. As the game is still in development, players can expect exciting changes and updates to the gameplay.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The duration of Early Access is subject to player engagement and interest in the project. We're committed to delivering a polished and complete game, and will exit Early Access once the story arc has been fully realized. If the game proves to be successful and well-received, our goal is to transition out of Early Access within 18 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We have plans to continue development of Triptych, including adding new features and expanding the world. Our goal is to create a complete storyline and include new puzzle mechanics and graphical intrigue. We are open to considering adding voice acting if there is significant player demand.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is currently in development and already features puzzle solving, branching conversations, immersive atmosphere, and engaging story. I'm continuously adding new content to the game, striving to provide an immersive and engaging experience for players from beginning to end.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Price varies based on content. Early Access players get all upcoming content. Price increases gradually with new features.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“To foster an active and engaging community I will be taking feedback on board and making changes based on player experience and advice, making them feel included in the story as it progresses and develops.”

Collect objects along the to store in your inventory and use later to solve puzzles. Talk to characters and NPCs you meet along the way to gather information in your notebook.

Triptych Book I: Blockhead is the 1st part of a 3 part graphical adventure game series set in an alternate version of World War One, where robotics have now begun to fight the war in place of mankind.

War *is* the world now, soldiers become citizens in battlefields dimply lit by glowing incandescent bulbs. A last bastion of hope chugs through the clouds; the Great Airship Auberon - a last holdout and floating fortress now about to come under duress & betrayal.

You begin the game awakening in the bowels of the airship Auberon, controlling an experimental prototype machine; you are the first true android. Your mission is unclear at first - but with the crew busy with an emergency brought about by an unexpected storm you will soon find yourself having to explore the airship and solve problems along the way. Perhaps a saboteur awaits in your midst? Only a small pigeon sent by your creator provides any real help. You are alone, for now...

Join the crew of the Auberon & fight the good fight!

The idea for Triptych began many years ago, as a very simple concept.

Beginning as an idea of Mords in the early 2000's of a robotic "Milo & Otis" like duo that would adventure across a wartorn landscape - an apocalyptic world in and of itself, their mission; to help the humans.

This idea evolved over time, an offshoot of which became the game Primordia which Mords created with the assistance of his newly formed studio. Many years have passed since then and the original idea has evolved many times, the bones of Triptych are a backburner idea which many other ideas sprang from - "Trenchmouth" being chief among those offshoots as well as of course it's predecessor, Primordia.

However - the story has now moved from the back burner of development to a main side quest whilst our main development project, Hibernaculum, is being built.

...Be seeing you ;)

- Mords & Tootsie
